The mirror version of the Silversmith was created when the [[Victorian era|Victorian]] [[magician]] known as the [[Silversmith]], having crafted a set of [[Silversmith's mirror|mirror]]s , accidentally stepped into a [[pocket of unreality]] created by some unknown fracture in [[Time]], portals to which had manifested on the surface of the mirrors, thanks to [[Spherion]] crystals which existed inside the pocket-world. The chaotic energy of this [[bubble dimension]] led to his mirror image becoming a [[Mirror Folk|sentient reflection]], as, in time, would all the reflections of whatever sentient beings passed by the Silversmith's mirrors.

Feeling a kinship with the other sentient reflections, the Mirror Silversmith overpowered his original, clasped him in irons and escaped into the real world in his place (specifically, in the city of [[Edinburgh]]). So long as the original Silversmith remained trapped inside the bubble dimension, the Silversmith was free to wander in and out of the real world, and, unlike the original, would never age.

The Mirror Silversmith then stole the real Silversmith's identity, and performed magic shows in his stead as a front for building an entire race of Reflections. Showing off two of the Silversmith's Mirrors, he would invite curious members of his audience to walk into one of the them, showing off how they would walk out of the other as if having [[Teleportation|teleported]] (an unthinkable feat for the era).

In truth, however, whoever walked into the Mirror was captured and jailed while it was the Reflection who walked out through the other looking glass. Their [[psychic energy]] was subsequently harvested via the Spherion crystals to reliably power the portals as well as sustain and stabilize an entire [[Mirror Edinburgh|mirror city]] inside the [[bubble dimension]] for the [[Mirror Folk]] to inhabit. The Mirror Silversmith also created a personal armed force out of [[Widowed Reflection]]s, the misshapen half-beings who came to existence when only part of someone's body was reflected into the Mirrors.

The Doctor and Josie quickly escaped, also freeing the other [[human]] prisoners and unmaking their corresponding [[Mirror Folk]]. When the Doctor carried the nearly-dead body of the original [[Silversmith]] back into the normal world, the Mirror Silversmith was sucked back into the bubble dimension, which, with nothing to power it, had collapsed to just the space of one of the looking glasses. Before he could find a way to escape, the Eighth Doctor then used his [[The Doctor's sonic screwdriver|sonic screwdriver]] to shatter the mirror, killing the Mirror Silversmith.
